# Dhammapada 306: 22. Hell

Dhammapada 306

- **Language:** Pāli

### [306](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.theravada.sp.khuddaka.dhammapada.306)

Abhūtavādī nirayaṃ upeti,  
Yo vāpi katvā na karomi cāha;  
Ubhopi te pecca samā bhavanti,  
Nihīnakammā manujā parattha.

> He who says what is not, goes to hell; he also who, having done a thing, says I have not done it. After death both are equal, they are men with evil deeds in the next world.  
> — Friedrich Max Müller 1881, The Dhammapada (Sacred Books of the East 10.1)
